Walking Festival

It's not long now until the Hay Walking Festival (I hope they have better weather than this week!).
It starts on Thursday 10th October with three walks - Moors, Waterfalls and Witches; Merbach Hill and Arthur's Stone, and Kilvert Country. All the walks cost £8 to join.
On the Friday, the walks include Craswall Priory, the Cat's Back and the Golden Valley.
In the evening, there's a talk at the Swan, with speakers talking about walking in the Brecon Beacons, Wainwright's Coast to Coast Walk, and The Shropshire Six - six hills on a 40 mile route which is traditionally completed in one day!
On Saturday the walks include Cusop Hill and the Darrens, Lord Hereford's Knob, another walk along the Cat's Back, and the Timbuktu Trail around Hay - that one only costs £5.
On Sunday, there are walks up Hay Common, Hay to Peterchurch with the Hay Ho bus, Llanthony, and the Begwns.
So there's quite a variety in terms of length of walks and terrain - all in beautiful countryside, of course.
They have a website at www.haywalkingfestival.com
